Authors notes: sorry it been so long since I did a chapter for this story…I'm a slacker, procrastinator, and my muse wasn't help much on this one. I like some of the suggestions that I got in the reviews but I don't know if I'm going to go in that direction or not…I might but only time will tell.

Chapter 2

Planet- Yalone 3 in the Milky Way system

A lone stargate stands out in the open in the middle of a dark field. The moon sits full in the sky shining it's light down. Suddenly the ring hums and red glyphs start to form on the gate as the inner circle starts to rotate back in forth. Liquid like blue energy shots out and just as quickly goes back forming a shimmering wall of energy.

Suddenly figure dressed in black leather body suits leap out of the middle of the gate. After few minutes about 3 dozen similar clad people exit the gate shuts down and disappears. The figures quickly disappear among the rocks scattered around the gate. A few seconds later a group of fifth-teen Ori warriors run towards the now powered down stargate.

There captain "search the area they couldn't have gotten far!"

The soldiers nod and split into groups of five to comb the area. As the unlucky group that had been station to guard the gate set up a perimeter. The black clad figures snuck up behind the soldiers and grabbed them by there neck, breaking all five of the soldiers neck at the same time. Then the screaming started as the rest of them set upon what was left of the Ori soldiers. Several blue flashes are seen and two of the black clad warriors are blasted and hit the ground only to get up and dismember the ones who had shot them.

The Ori captain. "WERE UNDER ATTACK SEND BACK U…"

He gasps and looks down only to see his still beating heart staring back at him. His head slumps over to the side and the hand holding the heart quickly pulls back through the chest. 20 minutes later another group of soldier march into area but unlike the previous ones there numbers were greater. Almost 40 soldier spread out looking for there missing comrades.

As they reach the stargate several of the soldiers pull off their helmets and puke there guts out at what they see. Mounted on their former staff weapons was the heads of all fifth-teen soldiers that had been assigned to guard the gate when the attack happened. Then a whistling sound is heard just before about a dozen four foot barbed arrows Peirce the Ori soldiers armor. When all but three were left standing, the black clad figures lowered their giant long war bows. As the three that had survived ran back to their base, one of the taller black clad people pointed to seven of the others and they ran after them.

Then he pointed to the ones who had been shot by the Ori weapons and they nodded and walked over to the stargate and activated their gate address and stepped through. After the gate shut down it activated again and two different black clad figures step out and walk up the larger one and slam their fist to the chest and bow slightly. The leader nods and he turns to the only living Ori soldier who is bound and gagged.

He removes his face cover reviling a man who looked to be in his mid 50's with white and black hair. A jagged scar runs down over his left eye, which is covered by a brown leather patch. The Ori soldier says something but the gag prevents it from being heard. The older man walks over to the bound soldier who is yanked and held 3 inches off the ground by a woman with short red hair.

Looks the Ori soldier in the eye "your priors came to our world and killed our people with no just cause…we tasted his blood and saw the artistes that were committed in the name of your filthy god…we are hear to kill them all starting with this world…we are letting you go so that you can tell your masters the we the Vampi are coming and we will not stop till your gods are laying at our feet dead…now go and tell your masters that you worm."

With that the man bonds are cut and he gets up and runs to the gate hitting several glyphs. The gate open and the runs through disappearing.

"NOW MY BROTERS AND SISTERS WE DINE TONIGHT ON THESE ORI SCUM…BUT ONLY FEED OFF THOSE THAT ATTACK YOU…I WILL PERSONALLY DRAIN YOU IF A CAVILION IS HURT…DO I MAKE MYSELF CLEAR?"

All of the gathered black clad Vampi yell "YES SIR!"

He nods and they put back of their masks and run to catch up on their prey.

A stargate rests suspended above the ground with mesh walkway leading up to the gate. Then an alarm starts to blare and a yellow light flashes off to the side, just before the inner ring starts to spin around. The view pulls back through a blast window showing people checking different thing on conceals that they were stationed at.

"Sir…incoming worm hole…-just then the last chevron locks into place and the stargate shoots out and falls bad into itself-…I.D.C. coming in…its S.G.3. Sir."

General Hammond nods "open the iris chief."

Both men watch as S.G.3. step out of the gate and walk out the side to the briefing room. General Hammond turns and walks to the briefing room also. He sits down at his place at the table and opens the folder containing the mission parameters of what S.G.3. Had to do on P9J-378. When Hammond got about half way through the S.G.3. Walked into the room. Hammond stood and saluted as after they did.

"Have a seat gentlemen…-they nod and sit-…I read most of the mission folder…how strong is the Ori presents on P9J-378."

"None sir."

General Hammond frowns at this "I was under the impression that P9J-378 was under Ori control…what changed that assumption Lieutenant Colonel?"

"Well general when we got there someone or something had beat us there…when we exited the gate we found the head of 52 Ori soldiers piked on there staff weapons…then when we got to the village that was closest to the gate we found the same thing except there we found hundreds of heads…from Ori soldier's…to a few towns people…there was even three Priors piked on there staffs."

General Hammond pales sightly at this "you mean to tell me that someone or something killed an entire regiment and 3 priors…what did the towns people have to say?"

"They said that three of the Ori soldiers came running back into town yelling about demons coming and then the priors and the remaining soldiers started to investigate what was going on…and according to the villagers…the priors were the first to die with arrows that went through there heads…we brought back several intact ones that we found."

"Let me see them."

One of the other members of S.G.3. Lifted up a large duffel bag and pull out a solid black arrow that looked to be around four-foot long, with a barbered head on it.

He frowns again "were was this found?"

"Sir…several of the arrows were imbedded in building around were the battle took place."

"Continue"

"Well sir…the villagers said that dozens of these arrows came out of nowhere and killed about a quarter of what was there…they said that some of them went thought the targets and into others…after that black clad figures attack the Ori soldiers killing the priors first them killing the rest…several villagers who were sympathetic to the Ori tried to fight and were literally torn apart."

"How many attackers were there Lieutenant…did the villagers see how many?"

He nods "that's the scariest part sir…according to the villagers there were only 30 or 40 of them…and when they were hit by the Ori staff weapons they got right back up and tore apart the ones who shoot them sir…also even weirder one villager said that that one of the attackers lost his mask after he took a blast to the face…and when he got up the villager swear that he saw the mans eyes glowing a bright red color before he jump 15 feet right on top of the Ori soldier that had shoot him."

One of the other nameless S.G.3. members "umm…sir one of the villagers told me that he saw them punch through their armor with their fists sir."

Hammond looks shocked at the news "did any of the villagers get the name of group?''

"Yes sir they did…apparently they are called the Vampi…and we were told that an older man that was among them said that P9J-378 is under there protection."

Hammond looks to the leader of S.G.3. " I hope that who ever these beings are…that we don't make an enemy out them..-Looks at the arrow again-…because if there strong enough to kill an entire regiment of Ori soldier and 3 priors on top of that…then I hope when we meet…that we are on friendly terms with them."

The Lieutenant nods "I hope so to…because they also drained all of the blood from those that they killed."

The Dolci stands praying towards a Prior of fire as a face forms.

"Hallow are the Ori…what is thy will oh great and powerful ones?"

A voice sounding like a hundred voices in one speaks " you have displeased us Dolci…your weak warriors were kill by vermin…what do you have to say in your defense."

The Dolci quivers in fear on his knees " I have nothing to say in my defense oh great and powerful ones…but I swear on my honor oh great ones that I will defeat these abominations that threaten our way of life."

"Very well Dolci…we the Ori have decided to give you another chance...if you fail us again the ramifications will be dire…do not fail us again Dolci!"

The fire disappears and the Dolci still bowing "I will not fail you again."

A door opens into a large but dimly lite chamber. An older man with peppered hair and a brown leather eye patch walks through the open door. He walks up to a half semi-circle raised platform and keels while saluting. Up on the platform sits six-veiled figure's, 3 women and 3 men who age are undetermined.

"I have answered your summons oh wise and ancient ones?"

The seven veiled Vampi sit staring towards the kneeled man infront of them.

Red veiled woman speaks up "how goes fares the campaign against the Ori, battle master Greywhyne?"

"The battle goes well oh honored elder…we have taken a total of four worlds from the Ori and I and the other war chiefs are working on taking 3 worlds from the Ori."

Black veiled man "how well does hammer of the ancestors work against the Ori?"

"Honored elder…the hammer of the ancestors has stop anyone baring Ori devices...the reprogramming has work very well…the four worlds that we have takin are still Ori free."

Several of the elders nod.

Green veiled man "I knew you were the right choice for this endeavor battle master Greywhyne, and you have more then proven yourself…you do us great honor by leading our soldiers into battle."

White veiled women "do you have anything else to add to this meeting battle master Greywhyne?"

He nods "yes I do honored elder's…I have heard rumors of a race called the Tal'Ri who have been holding there own against the Ori while possessing sanifintly less technology to defend themselves with."

The elder Vampi nod

Red veiled women "do these Tal'Ri posses any threat towards the Vampi?"

The old man shakes his head "no honored elder…I do not think they do."

Blue veiled man "what do you propose to do about these Tal'Ri that you speak of battle master Greywhyne?"

"I wish to propose an alliance with them against the Ori…I think they will make great allies in arms against our mutual enemies.

The veiled elders slowly nod as one and the white veiled women stand "we of the elder Vampi have agreed that your proposal to alley ourselves with the Tal'Ri is a wish decision…you have our permission to seek out these warriors and propose a alliance with them…this meeting has been concluded…you may leave battle master Greywhyne."

With that the grizzled warrior backs up and turns and leaves.
